The H-1B Request Process

H-1B cases must be initiated by the hiring department by a departmental representative who has completed H-1B e-form training. Individuals who are responsible for processing H-1B requests must view H-1B e-form training before they are permitted to submit H-1B requests. After viewing H-1B e-form training, the departmental representative must also pass the H-1B e-form competency quiz. Additional information and resources can be found on the OIS SharePoint site.

H-1B Training:

Before submitting an iHopkins request departmental representatives must view all eForm Training Modules. After reviewing all training modules, departmental representatives must complete the H-1B competency quiz, then request access to iHopkins.
